Ingredients
- 14 ounces Canned artichoke hearts (halved)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cold sparkling water
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 whole Lemon wedges
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Drain the canned artichoke hearts and pat them dry with a paper towel. Halve them if they are not already halved.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
Step 3
Gradually add the cold sparkling water to the flour mixture, whisking until smooth to form a batter. The batter should be slightly thick but remain pourable.
Step 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or a fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Step 5
Once the oil is hot, dip each artichoke heart half into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place it into the hot oil.
Step 6
Fry the artichoke hearts in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried artichokes from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Repeat the frying process with the remaining artichokes.
Step 9
Serve the crispy fried artichokes hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley and lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over before eating.
